Case of the Curious Crystals — Shanna Swendson

Small-time Crime, Big-time Danger Of all the crimes to plague the idyllic small town of Stirling Mills, Texas, Lexie Lincoln never expected jewelry theft. But thieves are breaking into local homes, stealing cheap costume jewelry and stirring up paranoia. When a ghost suggests that the jewelry may be more valuable than anyone realizes, Lexie finds herself delving into forgotten chapters of the town's strange history. It seems the jewelry might actually be valuable to those with the ability to use its power, and that poses a real danger as the crimes escalate. Lexie needs to track down the thieves before they can use the gems for nefarious purposes—and before the town tears itself apart with fear and suspicion. She can't exactly tell local cop Wes Mosby that she's getting hot tips from ghosts, so it's up to her to crack the case, stop the thieves, and foil their sinister agenda in time to save the town's spring festival. Another Lucky Lexie mystery by the author of the Enchanted, Inc. series.
